i want to encourage the economy to grow again. it's pretty clear that the economy is not growing at the rate it should under the president. and i can tell you with regards to the deductions you describe, home mortgage, interest deduction and charitable contributions, there will of course continue to be preferences for those type of competences. >> even wealthy people? would you put a cap how much they could deduct as far at charitable contributions are kevernd? i've heard you mention the $17,000 cap for some motion out there and i'd like you to elaborate if you don't mind. >> well, i'm not going to layout a piece of legislation here because i intend to work together with republicans and democrats in congress, but there are a number of ways one could approach this. one would be to have a total cap number. it could be $25,000, $50,000. and people could put whatever deduction in that total cap they'd like. or instead you could take the posture that bowles-simpson did which is going after that specific deduction and limitling them in

policies are working, that his agenda is finally getting traction in the economy. here's what the president had to say. >> there are too many middle class families that are still struggling to pay the bills. they were struggling long before the crisis hit. but today's news certainly is not an excuse to try and talk down the economy to score a few political points. it's a reminder that this country has come too far to turn back now. >> that was friday right after the jobs numbers came out. i'll point out two meaningful things about those jobs numbers. one, you recall when his stimulus plan came out somebody in his administration said with the stimulus plan. it was never a promise, a projection. symbolically it's meaningful this is now below 8%. also now it's fallen for the first time not because fewer people are looking for jobs. actually, the number of people looking for jobs rose slightly. so it's two pieces of good news for the obama campaign in a weak they really needed something. >> the bad news was the president's own performance in the debate. i'm told the pr

but as you point out, that's the key number, the economy. how does obama get out of this box of voters being not happy with the economy? but up until now, willing to perhaps give him another chance. i'm surprised. i'm surprise the debate turned things around, if they indeed have, that quickly. obama has two more debates to turn things back. so shouldn't get too excited by one poll. but this is the best news the romney camp has had in probably over a month. >> certainly is. but you're absolutely right, this is one national poll. there will be several more likely voters out there, even more important than the national poll members will be the battleground state polls in ohio and florida and virginia. we'll see what they show as well. ryan, thanks very much for coming in. >> thank you, wolf. appreciate it. >>> we're only three days away from another milestone in the presidential race. with all eyes turning to the debate between vice president joe biden and republican nominee paul ryan after the president's weak showing in the first debate with

actually, you know who's really suffered in this economy? blue collar non-educated white males in places like ohio. those guys are really in deep trouble. in some respects women have been doing better out of this i think than those guys have. so i do think that women are important constituency, but i do think there's a lot more depth and go into subtlety than what we've traditionally thought about. biden may go in that direction. i think if i were ryan, honestly i think the way ryan has to handle that is, i'm catholic, this is what i believe and get away from the rape question. >> women married to men who don't have jobs, then you're talking about vote perhaps on those economic issues as well. >> we have to cut it off real quick. when we come back though we are all going to give our unsolicited advice to one unsuspecting target. stay right here on cnn's "the situation room." imimagaginine e ifif y yod alalwawaysys s seeee l e [m[mususicic]] inin t thehe b besest t lil. eveverery y titimeme o of f. ououtdtdoooorsrs, , oro. trtranansisititiono

and once the economy returns to normal, it must be solved. there will be plenty of time after the election of 2016 to deal with that problem. today's crisis is putting people back to work, getting the economy moving again. don't let the obama administration off the hook for its failure to do that. >> maria, i was curious on this because i was paying close attention like all of you were how they addressed each other during the course of the debate. we put together this clip. >> my friend my friend. >> joe and i are from similar towns. >> i love my friend here. >> appreciate that, joe. >> my friend. >> joe this taxes a million people. >> let me tell you what my friend said. my friend. what would my friend do differently? my friends, i just fundamentally disagree with my friend. >> i want to thank you, joe. >> now, was that appropriate for the congressman to call the sitting vice president of the united states joe? >> i actually don't think that's a big deal. i mean sarah palin asked if she could call him joe and joe said yes. i don't think that
